Oh, the wit and wisdom of Jay Sonza, the former broadcast journalist who’s now reinvented himself as a blogger extraordinaire. 

In his latest foray into subtlety, Sonza decided to comment on Bongbong Marcos’ first two years in office without actually uttering the name. Because, of course, he’s already facing a pesky libel case, and we can’t have that, can we? But fear not, dear netizens, for we are the Sherlock Holmes of the Internet age, masters of reading between the lines.

Sonza’s cleverly-cloaked criticism is like a literary masterpiece. It’s as if he’s trying to say, “Our dear leader has lost his grip, but I dare not speak his name, for fear of more legal trouble.” Truly, a maestro of linguistic evasion. 

But wait, there’s more! With his pending libel case and a potential mountain of estafa charges — 11 counts to be exact —Sonza is setting a new trend in the legal world. Who needs a humble libel case when you can have the whole legal buffet? But then again, he does not need to cough up more pesoses to his already paid P268,000 bail, does he?

Bravo, Jay, bravo!
